Offered through United Performance
Unleash the full potential of your Audi B8 or B8.5 S4, S5, or SQ5 (3.0 TFSI) with Jackal Motorsports’ precision ECU & TCU tuning. From refined daily drivability to jaw-dropping performance, Jackal delivers across the board—featuring Stage 1, 2, and 2+ calibrations, advanced options like Water/Methanol Injection (WMI) and E40 fuel optimizations, and top-tier transmission tuning. Built for record-setting performance and engineered for reliability, this is the ultimate upgrade for the 3.0 TFSI platform.
Tuned for Record-Breaking Performance
Jackal tunes lead the pack—customers have set street-level 1/4-mile records:
- Stage 2+ E40 runs: 0–60 mph in only 2.8 seconds, 1/4-mile in 10.68 @ 129 mph, on a stock blower.
- A Stage 1 93-octane tune delivered an astounding 1/4-mile time of 11.51 @ 118 mph, with a 3.46-second 0–60 —all on just an intake and cat-back exhaust.
These aren’t just dyno numbers—they’re real-world results achievable with Jackal’s off-the-shelf tuning files.
